So Happy Together
I was looking through some shots I took the other day and really liked this one. For those of you who are fans of the crane style this one was shot using what I call “Crane Takes a Drink and Looks Up” Ha ha ha….in other words I just held the camera low and shot up without looking through the viewfinder. I just happened to look over and saw Fran and Terry and took the chance of trying to capture this moment.
Why I like it so much is that a few years ago Fran was struggling with leukemia. Fran is a very vibrant person and a great athlete so it was hard to see her as the treatments took their toll on her. Fran and Terry were just dating then and I can only imagine how much strain it all must have put on their relationship. During all that time they had a strong faith in God and I believe that was a major factor in helping them through that time.
Fran and Terry are married now, and they both help to head up our communion prayer team. So I love this picture because of the joy in Fran and Terry’s faces and especially in Terry’s as he is looking over at Fran. I know God has that same smile as he looks over both of them.

Dude! I don’t even know what to say but…*taking a deep breath* wow! That story behind that image makes its so much more to them, you, and anyone who reads this… Thank you!
@The_Honys - Yes Tony, I agree. I think that is why this picture just really stuck out to me as I was looking through stuff. We all get caught up in so many things these days but to me that picture, because of what I know of them, just really showed me alot about what is really important.
Wow! what a story. Beautiful, God is good!
